3. Locate the Furnace
The Frontier Series is certified for safety as an INDOOR APPLIANCE, so you can install it in a walk out
basement, shed, out-building or almost any location where the unit is sheltered from the weather and
insulated from intake air below 40°F (4.5°C).
DO NOT
install this furnace in a mobile home or trailer.
CAUTION:
As with any furnace operated indoors, you should install a carbon monoxide monitor and
take any other safety precautions to maintain safe oxygen levels in the room where the furnace is
installed.
NOTE:
Installation must be completed in accordance with National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA) installation standards No. 89M, 90B, 211, 70 (National Electrical Code) and Uniform
Mechanical Code 913, 6-4 in states where applicable.
The Frontier CX may be installed on a combustible floor provided that the bottom heat shield (shipped with
the boiler) is installed and the floor is protected from spillage of burning fuel particles by a noncombustible
surface (such as masonry, cement, or sheet metal) placed: (1) Underneath the furnace; (2) At least 16 inches
(406 mm) in front and 8 inches (203 mm) on either side of the fuel-loading and ash-removal door; and (3)
Underneath the chimney connector and extending at least 2 inches (50 mm) on either side of the chimney
connector.
When deciding where to place the unit, consider the location of your chimney, access to electricity, and the
convenience of retrieving and loading wood.
